Port of Dubuque SpringHill Suites by Marriott — Development Agreement Second Amendment
Description
Kinseth downsized from two hotels to one 90-room SpringHill Suites due to lending and soil-cost challenges, and the council approved the amended deal with TIF, land sale terms and a restrictive covenant protecting the developer's hotel position.
Impact summary
Brings an $18 million hotel near the Grand River Center by spring 2028, boosting convention business and adding hotel/motel tax revenue that halves toward property tax relief.
